They look like Sure amplifier boards, though I can't say with certainty.
Those Sure amplifier prices are bonkers! (Low)They look like Sure amplifier boards, though I can't say with certainty.

It also says Maximum output current per channel: 16.5A. That is 1089W at 4 Ohms per channel!I think the amp actually exceeds it's specs.... it just that the specs are written in a very misleading way.
"225 W RMS 4-channel output" is spec. @amirm measured 69 watts so 69 * 4 channels= 276 watts. Publishing a spec like this is grounds for a headless panther I think.
Because there are very few sites like this and too many dishonest companies. You just didn't know.WELL, crud. Bought this one last year for my home theater. In reality, I needed something class D, sealed (its in the basement where I'm occasionally woodworking), and had balanced connectors. But if the amp performance of this is worse than a denon x3700, and my emotiva xmc-1's performance is also worse than the denon x3700, then.....why the fudge am I even mucking around with separates with the all in one performs better? stupid choices i've made.
Ah, you may be right! The wording is obscure enough that it could mean this."225 W RMS 4-channel output" is spec. @amirm measured 69 watts so 69 * 4 channels= 276 watts. Publishing a spec like this is grounds for a headless panther I think.
“The emotiva mistake” — a new thriller series from the makers of “Chernobyl”, coming to HBOMax this fall.I made the emotiva mistake.
I seem to recall some of these sure boards available to purchase on parts express…maybe ”express” is what they mean by “fast amplification.”Those Sure amplifier prices are bonkers! (Low)
Well…the mind wants you to hear that breathing on the amp you just dropped a wad of cash on…Well, shucks, I just got mine yesterday and have been listening to it quite a bit for the past two days. I've been running it exclusively in 2-channel bridged mode. It sounds pretty great to me. I have it driving a pair of Revel M106s. I've been comparing it to an Emotiva XPA-2-Gen3 and my wife and I agreed it seemed to have better details, like the breath onset of a flute, or the bow attack in a double bass. Not a blind test to be sure, but it really seemed obvious as we got into each test track.
Could be. The goal was to decide between the Emotiva ($1099) and the Starke ($1399) and my wife didn't have any idea of the cost of either and she had a very decisive opinion without any prompting from me.Well…the mind wants you to hear that breathing on the amp you just dropped a wad of cash on…
Im not sure about that, but I've been mixing live sound for decades and there was this old cheap Soundcraft mixer from the 80s that would just sound amazing pushing the levels up.Well…the mind wants you to hear that breathing on the amp you just dropped a wad of cash on…
ah…I thought you had the emotiva alreadyCould be. The goal was to decide between the Emotiva ($1099) and the Starke ($1399) and my wife didn't have any idea of the cost of either and she had a very decisive opinion without any prompting from me.
I definitely agree they are quoting total power and not per channel power.I think the amp actually exceeds it's specs.... it just that the specs are written in a very misleading way.
